Wolwekop Game Ranch
Game Hunting
When I hunt, I am immersed mentally, physically and even spiritually in an age-old predatory relationship among animals. I am participating in a common ecological process – just as a fox seeks her prey. I do not need to kill to eat – although I enjoy and appreciate eating game immensely. I kill to have hunted. To me, hunting is a very intense personal relationship between myself, the prey, and the environment in which the chase occurs. This participation, to me, is a form of ecological worship…” Eric K. Fritzell, Professor and Department Head, Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Oregon State University.
This sentiment perfectly captures the spirit in which Wolwekop Game Ranch was created. Africa is the cradle of mankind and the home of hunting.
